It's so HOT outside! 3 years ago

This whole heat wave thing that’s attacked the US needs to go away!!!



I got tendonitis in my elbow 3 years ago

about 5.5 yrs ago. It never went away. Since then, I’ve had ‘migrating pain’ throughout all my major joints. Many doctors later, the most likely culprit is lupus, but because of my insurance situation and (perpetual) student status, I don’t want to go to a rheumatologist and get a really good workup and diagnosis. Instead, it’s pain management. Aleve, Celebrex, even Vioxx for a couple years. Ibuprophen eats my stomach now. Minimum of 8 hrs of sleep a night, stay out of the sun, heat causes extreme fatigue, stairs are difficult sometimes. I can’t even type for very long without my hands cramping up. I’m 25.
